Digging up some florida vines and one caught my tip out grill. These vines are tough and it bent the grill soo bad the catches are waaaay off. Not worth trying to fix. Anyone have a part number for just the tilt part? Its a 2017 23S. Thanks!!

I bent mine 2 months ago but the $$!!! money Kubota wants for those 2 silly 'old skool kitchen cabinet clasps' is obscene....the grille is OK now ,from a tweek here, twurk there...
Winter project 17 is to design/fab/install a SIMPLE slide in guard,held in by maybe 2 PTO pins....
I've never taken the loader off so not too worried about plastic damage....

Wow, lot of jack for not much. More Kubota 'proud' parts'. least their filters are competitive.

Now if they were green......................

I kept bending mine and would straighten it and repeat bending it again. I just gave up and left it bent and don't seem to hit it anymore.
